A Gorgeous Excitement A Novel

A Gorgeous Excitement: A Novel by Cynthia Weiner
English | January 21, 2025 | ISBN: 0593798848 | True EPUB | 368 pages | 1.6 MB
In this "absorbing, astute novel" (Town & Country, Must Read Books of Winter 2025) one young woman's summer of infinite possibility takes a turn she never saw coming.

There are two things Nina Jacobs is determined to do over the summer of 1986: avoid her mother's depression-fueled rages, and lose her virginity before she starts college in the fall. Both are seemingly impossible-when her mother isn't lying in bed for days, she's lashing out at Nina over any perceived slight. And after a blowjob gone spectacularly wrong, Nina is the talk of Flanagan's, the Upper East Side bar where young Manhattan society congregates. It doesn't help that she's Jewish, an outsider among the blue-eyed blondes who populate this rarified world. She can fit in, kind of, with enough alcohol and prescription drugs stolen from her parents' medicine cabinet.

Freud called cocaine "a gorgeous excitement," but a gorgeous excitement for the wrong guy can be lethal.

A Grammar of Gan Chinese The Yichun Language

Xuping Li, "A Grammar of Gan Chinese: The Yichun Language "
English | ISBN: 1501515799 | 2018 | 331 pages | EPUB | 29 MB
China is very rich in language resources, and Mandarin is undoubtedly its most prestigious and well-known representative. Unfortunately, most of these languages remain understudied or even unstudied. Such is the case of Yichun Gan.

Written in the style of a reference grammar, this book sets out to give a comprehensive and systematic description of Yichun grammar, with the aim of increasing readers' knowledge about Chinese languages other than Mandarin. In addition to common categories like nouns, verbs, adjectives and prepositions, the volume attempts to cover as many grammatical categories and constructions as possible, including the Sinitic-specific categories such as classifiers, the aspect system, postpositions and the object-marking BA constructions.
To highlight its uniqueness, the book adopts a comparative perspective to contrast many features of Yichun Gan with Mandarin and other Sinitic languages. Our study shows that Yichun Gan possesses both Northern and Southern Chinese traits in many constructions, which supports its status as a transitional language.
It will be of interest to linguists who wish to learn more about East Asian languages, and more specifically Sinitic languages.

A Grammar of Shaowu A Sinitic Language of Northwestern Fujian

Sing Sing Ngai, "A Grammar of Shaowu: A Sinitic Language of Northwestern Fujian "
English | ISBN: 1501517724 | 2021 | 733 pages | EPUB | 3 MB
This is the first comprehensive grammar of Shaowu, a Min language spoken in Shaowu city and its environs in northwestern Fujian province, China. The book offers first-hand linguistic data collected over four years in the field, now placed at the disposal of researchers and students working in language documentation, comparative linguistics and Sinitic typology. It can serve as a reference grammar for those interested in learning the Shaowu language, thereby helping to preserve it. In addition, the book provides insights into Shaowu's classification which has been widely debated, thus elucidating its genetic affiliation.

The book first presents Shaowu's geography, demography and history. It then profiles the language's phonology and lexicon, before providing a detailed description of its syntax, notably on its nominal, predicate, clausal and complex sentence structures, which are the focus of the book.

A Grammar of Southern Min The Hui'an Dialect

Weirong Chen, "A Grammar of Southern Min: The Hui'an Dialect "
English | ISBN: 1501517457 | 2020 | 542 pages | EPUB | 23 MB
Southern Min (also known as Hokkien or Minnan) is a major branch of Chinese spoken mainly in Fujian and Taiwan, but also in Guangdong, Hainan and Hong Kong, as well as in many countries of Southeast Asia. Highly conservative in its linguistic profile, it is considered by many scholars to be a living language fossil due to the preservation of many archaic features that reflect its long-lasting history and culture. Yet to date there has been no comprehensive study of Southern Min using a typological framework, as the tendency is to base analyses on the model of Mandarin Chinese, the standard language. This grammar aims to present a systematic description of the Hui'an variety of Southern Min, mainly based on data collected via naturally occurring conversation. The volume includes four parts: nominal structure, predicate structure, clause structure and complex sentences, as well as a brief overview of phonology. It will have great appeal for heritage speakers, graduate students and scholars in both Chinese linguistics and typology.

A Grand Opening Squandered The Battle for Petersburg June 15-18, 1864

A Grand Opening Squandered: The Battle for Petersburg: June 15-18, 1864
by Sean Michael Chick
English | 2025 | ISBN: 1611217210 | 192 Pages | True ePUB | 30 MB

The Battle of Petersburg's intense four-day clash marked a missed Union opportunity, prolonging the Civil War with dramatic consequences.
May and June 1864 in Virginia witnessed some of the most brutal and bloody fighting of the Civil War. Combined losses for the two armies after the Wilderness, Spotsylvania Court House, North Anna, and Cold Harbor exceeded 80,000 killed, wounded, and captured. The result? A stalemate outside Richmond.
The carnage notwithstanding, Lt. Gen. Ulysses S. Grant set his armies toward their next target: the logistical powerhouse of Petersburg. His bold maneuver, which included the construction of a lengthy pontoon bridge across the broad James River and a surprise march against the city, caught Confederate commander Gen. Robert E. Lee by surprise. Petersburg was lightly guarded and seemed at the mercy of the Federals. Its capture would sever the lifelines into Richmond, force the evacuation of the Southern capital, and ensure President Abraham Lincoln' s reelection, eliminating whatever thin hopes the Confederacy still had for victory.
Petersburg's small garrison was determined to hold the city. Its department commander, Gen. P. G. T. Beauregard, realized the danger and shifted as many men as he could spare into the defenses and took the field himself. North of the river, meanwhile, Lee remained unconvinced that Grant had stolen a march on him. The four days of fighting that followed (June 15-18) would determine if the war would end or drag on.
Somehow, the Confederates managed to hold on against the bungled Federal effort and fight them to a standstill. Lee's army finally began arriving on June 18. Petersburg would hold-for now. Beauregard's impressive achievement was one of the South's last strategic victories.
Sean Michael Chick's A Grand Opening Squandered: The Battle for Petersburg, June 15-18, 1864 provides fresh and renewed attention to one of the most important, fascinating, and yet oddly overlooked battles of the war. Inside are original maps, new research, and dozens of images-many published here for the first time. A Grand Opening Squandered is the first in a series on the Petersburg operation, which will provide readers with a strong introduction to the war's longest and most complex campaign.

A Greek Thomist Providence in Gennadios Scholarios

A Greek Thomist: Providence in Gennadios Scholarios By Matthew C. Briel
2020 | 288 Pages | ISBN: 0268107491 | EPUB | 1 MB
Matthew Briel examines, for the first time, the appropriation and modification of Thomas Aquinas's understanding of providence by fifteenth-century Greek Orthodox theologian Gennadios Scholarios. Briel investigates the intersection of Aquinas's theology, the legacy of Greek patristic and later theological traditions, and the use of Aristotle's philosophy by Latin and Greek Christian thinkers in the thirteenth to fifteenth centuries. A Greek Thomist reconsiders our current understanding of later Byzantine theology by reconfiguring the construction of what constitutes "orthodoxy" within a pro- or anti-Western paradigm. The fruit of this appropriation of Aquinas enriches extant sources for historical and contemporary assessments of Orthodox theology. Moreover, Scholarios's grafting of Thomas onto the later Greek theological tradition changes the account of grace and freedom in Thomistic moral theology. The particular kind of Thomism that Scholarios develops avoids the later vexing issues in the West of the de auxiliis controversy by replacing the Augustinian theology of grace with the highly developed Greek theological concept of synergy. A Greek Thomist is perfect for students and scholars of Greek Orthodoxy, Greek theological traditions, and the continued influence of Thomas Aquinas.

A Hilbert Space Problem Book

A Hilbert Space Problem Book by Paul R. Halmos
English | PDF | 1982 | 385 Pages | ISBN : 0387906851 | 27.9 MB
From the Preface: "This book was written for the active reader. The first part consists of problems, frequently preceded by definitions and motivation, and sometimes followed by corollaries and historical remarks... The second part, a very short one, consists of hints... The third part, the longest, consists of solutions: proofs, answers, or contructions, depending on the nature of the problem...

This is not an introduction to Hilbert space theory. Some knowledge of that subject is a prerequisite: at the very least, a study of the elements of Hilbert space theory should proceed concurrently with the reading of this book."

A History of Britain in Ten Enemies

A History of Britain in Ten Enemies by Terry Deary
English | October 10, 2024 | ISBN: 0857506358, 085750696X | True EPUB | 256 pages | 16.5 MB
Ah, Britain. So special. The greatest nation on earth, some say. And we did it all on our own. Didn't we?

Well, as it happens Britannia got its name from the Romans, and for the past two centuries we have been ruled by Germans. But then, as Horrible Histories author Terry Deary argues, nations and their leaders are defined by the enemies they make.
The surprisingly sadistic Boudica would be forgotten if it weren't for the Ninth Legion, Elizabeth I a minor royal without the Spanish Armada, and Churchill an opposition windbag without the Nazis. Britain loves its heroes so much we have been known to pickle them in brandy to keep them fresh. And after all, every nation sometimes needs a bit of unifying Blitz spirit (although in an ideal world, we wouldn't have accidentally let Corporal Hitler go in the first place).
The British have a proud history of choosing their enemies, from the Romans to the Germans. You might even say those enemies made Britain what it is today...

A History of Horror, 2nd Edition

A History of Horror, 2nd Edition by Wheeler Winston Dixon
English | February 10, 2023 | ISBN: 1978833598, 197883358X | True EPUB | 298 pages | 2.8 MB
Ever since horror leapt from popular fiction to the silver screen in the late 1890s, viewers have experienced fear and pleasure in exquisite combination. Wheeler Winston Dixon's fully revised and updated A History of Horror is still the only book to offer a comprehensive survey of this ever-popular film genre.

Arranged by decades, with outliers and franchise films overlapping some years, this one-stop sourcebook unearths the historical origins of characters such as Dracula, Frankenstein, and the Wolfman and their various incarnations in film from the silent era to comedic sequels. In covering the last decade, this new edition includes coverage of the resurgence of the genre, covering the swath of new groundbreaking horror films directed by women, Black and queer horror films, and a new international wave in body horror films.
A History of Horror explores how the horror film fits into the Hollywood studio system, how the distribution and exhibition of horror films have changed in a post-COVID world, and how its enormous success in American and European culture expanded globally over time.
Dixon examines key periods in the horror film-in which the basic precepts of the genre were established, then banished into conveniently reliable and malleable forms, and then, after collapsing into parody, rose again and again to create new levels of intensity and menace. A History of Horror, supported by rare stills from classic films, brings over sixty timeless horror films into frightfully clear focus, zooms in on today's top horror Web sites, and champions the stars, directors, and subgenres that make the horror film so exciting and popular with contemporary audiences.

A History of Hygiene in Modern France The Threshold of Disgust

A History of Hygiene in Modern France: The Threshold of Disgust
by Steven Zdatny
English | 2024 | ISBN: 1350428698 | 327 Pages | True PDF | 12.5 MB

This book tells the story of an epochal change in the human condition that was part of what is often thought of as 'modernization' -a process that remade culture and society in France in the 19th and 20th centuries. Hygiene, Steven Zdatny convincingly contends, was that change. He reflects on how the development of hygiene: changed the way people thought about and treated their bodies; put an end to age-old afflictions and brought comfort where discomfort had been the unavoidable companion of existence; and helped produce a tripling of life expectancy. The book considers how the evolution of hygiene produced a society where people washed often, changed their clothes every day, lived without lice and scabies, and performed their natural functions indoors. It reflects on developments in industrial plumbing, public education, government investment, the invention of new products to keep bodies and homes clean, and a parallel makeover in the expectations, sensibilities, and practices about what is 'proper' and what is disgusting. These developments, the study reveals, were not steady and did not happen everywhere at the same pace. But in the fullness of time, they produced a revolution in the human condition.

A History of Interest Rates, Fourth Edition Ed 4

Sidney Homer, "A History of Interest Rates, Fourth Edition Ed 4"
English | ISBN: 0471732834 | 2005 | 736 pages | AZW3 | 23 MB
A History of Interest Rates presents a very readable account of interest rate trends and lending practices over four millennia of economic history. Despite the paucity of data prior to the Industrial Revolution, authors Homer and Sylla provide a highly detailed analysis of money markets and borrowing practices in major economies. Underlying the analysis is their assertion that "the free market long-term rates of interest for any industrial nation, properly charted, provide a sort of fever chart of the economic and political health of that nation." Given the enormous volatility of rates in the 20th century, this implies we're living in age of political and economic excesses that are reflected in massive interest rate swings. Gain more insight into this assertion by ordering a copy of this book today.

A History of Public Health in Alberta, 1919-2019

A History of Public Health in Alberta, 1919-2019
by Lindsay McLaren, Donald W.M. Juzwishin
English | 2024 | ISBN: 1773855441 | 498 Pages | PDF | 7.5 MB

Public health is diffuse, divided, and poorly understood. As a policy and practice, public health promotes and protects people and communities. As a field of academic inquiry it provides deep insights into the ways individuals and collectives can work within societies to prevent disease and promote health and health equity. Public health is a broad, intersectoral, and interdisciplinary field of scholarship, activism, policy, and practice with the potential to create and support immense change.
This is a story of one hundred years of public health in Alberta. Drawing on extensive research, including interviews with members of Alberta's public health communities, A History of Public Health in Alberta, 1919-2019 considers institutions, sectors, populations, and activities that constitute the study and practice of public health. It offers a consolidated narrative from a contemporary perspective, paying particular attention to significant and entrenched social inequities of health and their determinants, the emergence of new public health concerns, and communities of public health, including activists, practitioners, scholars, and the public itself.

A History of the Big House A Novel

A History of the Big House: A Novel by Charif Majdalani, translated by Ruth Diver
English | December 17, 2024 | ISBN: 1635423406 | True EPUB | 400 pages | 2.3 MB
This vibrant family saga chronicles the rise and fall of the Nassar clan, as they navigate the great events of the 20th century in Lebanon, from the Ottoman Empire to the French Mandate.

At the end of the 19th century, a man is forced to flee his village after a quarrel. Starting over with nothing, the banished, audacious Wakim Nassar will create orange plantations on the outskirts of Beirut and become the head of a large clan, feared and respected. The great house he builds at their center will become a powerful symbol of the Nassars' glory, admired from afar. But this decadence is short-lived, battered by the First World War, illness, family tragedy, and the shifting regimes that control Lebanon. As circumstances compel Wakim's descendants, one by one, to leave the house, it falls into ruin.
A rich, sweeping tale full of unforgettable characters and anchored in historical fact, A History of the Big House captures the unique experience of the Lebanese people through this family's triumphs and struggles.

A History of the Regular Mounted Infantry

A History of the Regular Mounted Infantry: From Victoria's Colonial Wars to the Russian Campaign of 1919
by Paul Baker
English | 2024 | ISBN: 1036106519 | 240 Pages | True ePUB | 0.5 MB

The Mounted Infantry had a short life spanning from the mid 1880's until disbanded in 1913. To continue the camaraderie of the corps, past surviving members formed the M.I Club and in 1936 decided to publish a short history based on Regimental records and personal reflections. An appeal elicited responses and work was begun by Major Tomlin. The manuscript was almost complete at the start of the Second World War when an enthusiastic cull of papers by Tomlin's family during a "wastepaper salvage drive" included much of the work he had completed. This would have been the end of the project, but Brigadier Standish G Craufurd intervened and undertook to rewrite the work using what material remained and his own resources. When the draft was substantially completed Sir Ian Hamilton (then in his 91st year) was approached to write the foreword, he responded that he felt this was a "makeshift history" that would best be left until the end of the war when access to records would be easier, and the manuscript could be improved upon. This archive including the unpublished manuscript, letters and reminiscences came up for sale on an online auction recently and provides a unique and interesting record of the Mounted Infantry. Considering that history of this corps is sparsely documented it would be, as Craufurd put it "a great pity to let slip an account of a side issue of the old Army, a very distinct phase, just before the great change brought by the Great War".
